I don’t like titles claiming to be the end-all or holy grail for anything. But I believe this claim to be irrefutable. The biggest influence in your life is your inner voice. Your personal thoughts. They were not pre-programmed at birth, you have so far spent a lifetime having your inner voice programmed, either proactively with intention, or you’ve allowed other people and things to program you. Though the truth for everyone is, both. But to what percentages? The danger is we primarily...

This is a special episode on habits. For almost two years now I’ve had every single guest on the Ziglar Show, comprised of today’s most successful influencers in personal development, share their personal habits for success. They share exactly what they do in each of the seven spokes of The Ziglar Wheel of Life. It is inspiring and empowering. From this I want to help you with your own habits. It’s one thing to understand the benefit of great habits and to hear what all these successful...

Are you suffering from a desire you have but you aren’t making progress toward? Are you clear on why you want it? Why you REALLY want it. The truth is, most people are not. They have a list of wants and desires they think they should want and maybe actually do to a degree, but they don’t have a clear picture in mind of what the actual payoff really is. If you press in to clarity on what and why you want something, you will either gain clarity and get true motivation, or you may realize you...

Wisdom is defined as the quality of having experience, knowledge, and good judgment I find it actually falls in that sequential order, you have an experience, you gain knowledge from which you utilize good judgement. Or let’s say...you can. If you pay attention. That’s the crux of this show with wise guy...Guy Kawasaki. This is actually my second interview of Guy. His new book is called Wise Guy and it’s a compilation of life lessons. Guy is an unprecedented influencer, which accounts for...

What do you do when confronted with a negative person? Whether they are just spouting negativity to or around you, or outright attacking you. Unless you live and work alone and are a veritable hermit, negative people are unavoidable. In this episode I play an impacting message from Zig Ziglar that does a profound job of highlighting the consequences of unleashed negativity. From it, I posed this question to the Ziglar audience, “How do you cope when you’re on the receiving end of...

We can’t hear it enough, the quality and routine of our morning is the primary indicator of our success for the day. Yet the fact remains that the majority of people, even aspiring people like the Ziglar Show listeners, do not have a healthy routine to start the morning. In show 707 I brought you Hal Elrod, bestselling phenomenon of the book The Miracle Morning. In this show we walk through the seven spokes of the Ziglar Wheel of Life with Hal and hear his personal habits for success. He has...

There is a relatively new thief that is stealing our time, attention and literally...peace. It’s crept up on us. Even a decade ago you’d never stand in line and see everyone starting at a little screen in their hand. They were looking around, noticing the world around them. Maybe talking with someone. At lunch you just talked with whoever you were with, the only distractions being other people in the restaurant or a possible phone call to your cell phone. Now we find a constant companion on...

Hal Elrod has influenced millions of people with the message of his bestselling book, “The Miracle Morning.” What’s intriguing is his concern with inspiring so many people, but not being satisfied with how many were taking real action as a result of the inspiration. His latest book is the Miracle Equation and it tackles these issues. Hal almost died twice, once from a head on collision with a drunk driver, then from a rare form of aggressive cancer. The principles that helped him come back...

What is more valuable than having human relations skills? Maybe...nothing. The quality of your relationships, the quantity of your relationships, and the joy in your relationships is equal to your human relations abilities. Along the way, we all learn some basics and out of Zig Ziglar’s 10 Commandments of Human Relations, you are probably doing some of them well, and benefiting from them. But where are you not doing well, and suffering? Or at least not benefiting where you could. We play a...

Steve Martin’s career guidance in his memoir, “Born Standing Up”, is to be so good they can’t ignore you. Ivy league computer science professor Cal Newport took it to heart. So much so that he wrote a best selling book with that title! Cal was my featured guest in show 703 where we discussed his book Deep Work and his latest book, Digital Minimalism. In this episode he shares his habits for success. Cal is one of the more influential personalities of...today’s influencers. Some of what...

Do you get decision fatigue? Or fear in making important decisions? You are not alone. In show 699, titled “How to make decisions with confidence” we talked with decision making expert, David Meltzer. Incredible information from this former consultant for the movie, Jerry Maguire, which I love! So I went to you, the Ziglar audience, and asked this question, “On a scale from 1-10 (10 best), how would you rate your confidence in making important decisions? And why?” It was incredibly...

Why would renowned associate professor of computer science at Georgetown University Cal Newport shun social media and keep ultra tight tight restrictions on his own technology usage? Because he desires to master his life, peace and productivity and he knows the limiting power of unleashed electronics in his life. Imagine waking up and immediately eating a donut. Getting ready for work and having a breakfast of...donuts. On the way to work, have a donut. As a matter of fact, you just keep a...

Welcome to The Ziglar Show, I’m your host, Kevin Miller and this is our Q&A show. Every week I post a personal development question on my facebook page at agentkmiller to hear the real-world testimonies of people’s journeys to change and grow. In this episode our topic is around an age old cliche’. We hear a short story and message from Zig Ziglar that wraps up with him stating a core value for humanity is “How fast you get up after being knocked down”. I think I can safely assume everyone...

In citing what he most wanted to impart the Ziglar audience, David Meltzer replied, “I want to challenge the audience to build a habit machine.” David was our guest in show 699 titled, “How to make decisions with confidence” and I started off the show fawning over the fact he was one of the main consultants for the movie Jerry Maguire. His new book is, Game-Time Decision Making: High-Scoring Business Strategies from the Biggest Names in Sports. In this show of course we walked through his...

Your health. How is it? In our series here giving focus to our bodies and minds which are the vehicles for all the goals and efforts, we went to the Ziglar audience to find out what they are dealing with. And...it’s quite a lot. A lot of tough issues. Dr. Randy James was our guest in show 695 and I asked him to come back and talk through the comments and so many issues. What you will hear is a common thread of addressing our foundation instead of always trying to zero in on the ailment that...

The most powerful successes in our lives come as the result of making decisions. And yes, that includes some bad decisions that help us get to the good ones. But to achieving anything of value comes by the hands of decision making. Yet how often have you heard guidance on just exactly how to go about making decisions confidently? It’s a void. Until now. In this episode I bring you David Meltzer. David has done a lot of things, but this is what initially peaked my interest in him - David was...

We continue to hear it and we can’t hear it enough - we are the sum of our daily habits and rituals. In this episode we talk with Dr. Randy James whose main interview with us was show #695 titled, “Do you want to be well(er)? Here is how”, where we discussed how to get optimal performance out of ourselves so our bodies and minds are fully functioning. This is our habits show and you’ll hear how some core routines for Randy and with his family are as he says, “the anchors for his life.” Much...

“No fear!” Said the psychopath. The rest of us are human and have fear. The question is, do we recognize it so we can “Do It Scared” as Ruth Soukup’s book is titled? Our main show with Ruth is #691 and was flat out profound. From it I did more than just ask a question, I asked people this, “Will you do this quick fear assessment and report what you find doitscared.com/assessment.” Well...you guys did. Over 30k people have taken Ruth’s fear assessment. We added 50 more. People took the...

Your greatest desire is the ability to do what you want and need to do. At the end of the day, nothing really matters if you are not well, in mind, body and soul. Those you desire to serve are not getting your best. Would you accept a million dollars in cash today but give 50% of your wellness away? Of course not. Yet we often find ourselves pursuing careers, businesses, family and all progress in our lives at the sake of our overall wellness. The hard charging business exec or business...
